it's as denigrating to the audience as biden in his recent change speech. one of the reasons is that the national liberal media doesn't talk about such things. special debate coverage next. ♪ >>> this is fox business coverage of election 2012, the presidential debates. here's is neil cavuto. ♪ neil: welcome, everybody, from the university of denver where we're now less than an hour away from the first of four big debates this year. this could be the most defining one, though, a chance for mitt romney to reverse what's been a slide in the polls, but not a horrible one. the fact of the matter is that week over week, a lot of these big swing states narrowed considerably, and the popular vote is virtually even nationally. this will be all about the economy. this will be about debt. this will be about health care. this will be about all issues domestic. libya will not come up. syria and some of the increased fighting there, foreign affairs, will not come up. no doubt, mitt romney will try to work that into the theme of whether we continue to pour good money

47% comment to the greatest effect. >> big ups to joe biden for rocking the polo shirt. i can't think of the last time someone on a ticket has made such a bold choice. look at the contrast here between joe biden who's setting the issues on the table and paul ryan who frankly doesn't look very gracious when you're asked about missteps on the ticket, if you want to do anything, and i think this is communications and politics 101, if you want to do anything talk about your own missteps. you're the number 2 guy. you're not there to remind people about how your boss made a big error that wasn't just style but was also substance. >> paul ryan was also asked why the romney/ryan team is trailing in the polls. let's listen to his response to that. >> it kind of goes without saying that there is definitely media bias. i think most people in main stream media are left of center and therefore they want a left of center president versus the conservative president like mitt romney. >> the old blame the media. you know you're in trouble when you blame the media for where your campaign

where were you when you heard joe biden yesterday? >> i don't remember. because we don't see this as a tremendous deal. the romney campaign is good at jumping on whatever out of context comment of the day is, what they're not good at is understanding the challenges that middle class face. the fact that they don't believe the middle class bore the biggest brunt of the economic crisis is born out in your poll today. and a number of other polls that mitt romney doesn't understand the challenges that the middle class faces. what joe biden was saying, at which he often says on the campaign trail, is that because of the policies of the last administration and some of the same policies that mitt romney and paul ryan want to go back to, the middle class was severely punished and has take an while to bounce back. but the president has put the middle class at the center of everything that he has done over the past four years and he'll talk about that tonight. >> now, one of the things that the republicans are sure to talk about tonight is debt. trillions of dollars
